it's perfectly normal when, after pouring it into your pan or what-have-you, to get the rest of the stuff out of the jar, you can splash a bit (just a small bit) of water into the jar, close it up, give it a shake, then tip the rest into the pan. No waste, no fuss. I grew up watching my dad do this and I do the same. Yet my better half has suggested this makes me cheap and disgusting.

When you were a kid having a family meal and it looked like you weren't going to clear your plate, did your parents ever say: 'Just finish your meat'. Because it's the most expensive part and it's bad to see it go to waste.
